Greasemonkey 0.9.0 Release

It's been a long time coming, but it should be worth the wait! The next major release of Greasemonkey, version 0.9.0, is ready. Let's dive right into the new features:

New Features:

Compatibility with Firefox 4! Note that because of Firefox bug 612025 this is somewhat unsafe for 4.0b7 to 4.0b9 (inclusive). Beta 10 should be fixed (the nightly build on January 14th definitely is). Firefox 4 support is still preliminary. Everything probably works, but not everything works really well. The backlog of bugs for the next release is primarily focused on this.

Our preliminary review has come back, negative. There's only a few small issues which I'd expect to have fixed in the next few hours. Submission and re-review should then be completed in (I hope) 24 to 48 hours more.
